beckettlion Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 I personally like the team for the fact we will always have a potential match winner at reserve (Newman or Bates) and second string (king or piesczcek). Plenty of strength in depth. Now just to hope we’re a bit luckier this season! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Observer Posted January 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 I read that all seven rider suits are available for sponsorship and to own at the end of the season for a fee of £500. I only hope this season there isn't the usual merry go round of riders trying to squeeze into the same 7 kevlars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaColette Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 So if the last rider is Hans, what's with the article in the Echo today, bit weird! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Might have to wait a bit longer to announce the 7th rider. MF hasn't given his permission yet!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, so Hans has to choose between Poole and Leicester?? Maybe Leicester can have Chris, he might actually want to ride for them!

Swindon didn’t give Ford permission to steal Miedzinski. About time his pathetic oneupmanship was exposed. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flagrag Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Well the 7th rider was at Beaumont Park on Wednesday and was only too pleased to have his picture took as a Lion and as expected said he is excited for the new season.

Let’s hope it’s Hans. Clearly 2nd choice behind Holder and he has decided to sort his own affairs out rather than wait to see what teams are left and who may or may not want him. I hope that hasn’t left the Pirates in too much of a quandary... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted January 6, 2018 Report Share Posted January 6, 2018 If they are haggling over the loan fee or transfer fee it could have caused Mr Ford to start playing games via the media. Hans is, what, 38 but by no means over the hill yet. So Ford could be trying to get a better transfer fee than what Leicester are offering??

It's all to do with Chris Holder I think. Read Skidder's post on the Poole thread, it makes the most sense imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Bump Posted January 8, 2018 Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Andersen it is. Happy with that! Half decent team for a change. Roll on the new season. Edited January 8, 2018 by Mr Bump 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted January 8, 2018 Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 Terrific signing for the Lions, looks a very good side which will take some beating. Hans is not the rider he was but he maintains his level year on year and always gives his best every race, you won't catch him letting anyone down. It is a shame from my point of view that he will not be at Poole next season, always liked Hans and a rider and as a person. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomersetBlue Posted January 8, 2018 Report Share Posted January 8, 2018 Great lineup tbh disagree with Vaculik being an 8.00 personally but definitely the best lineup so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
